Terrace
Downs Resort - Canterbury NZ's ultimate winter
destination!
Terrace Downs is making more noise now
than ever before and with the exciting new announcements
it’s no wonder why. The Spa is perfect for a wind down
after a long day on the slopes, the gourmet al fresco pizza
restaurant The Grill, is ideal for a cold beer (or mulled
wine!) and a pizza after any day's work or day on the
slopes…and the new events calendar is going to rock the
heart of the Canterbury high country with some great local
and international acts over the next 12
months.
Situated in the foothills of Mt Hutt,
Terrace Downs is ideally located on Coleridge road and for
those of you who do not know the area too well it is also
the gateway to the great Canterbury club fields. Broken
River, Craigieburn and Porters Ski Area all boast great
terrain and offer easy access to some of the best back
country runs hidden in the Southern Alps. The $75.00
Heli-taxi from Terrace Downs heli-pad to Mt Hutt is back
this season and is sure to create some extra special and
lasting memories of any family or group holiday.
Being nestled away among so many fantastic
ski areas’ it is no wonder Terrace Downs is becoming
increasingly popular as a winter escape destination, and
with access to first class accommodation and resort
facilities at very affordable prices the resort looks set
for a busy time over the coming months!
Children are
spoilt for choice this winter with the Snowsports Programme
at Mt Hutt AND The TD Hawks Club on site at Terrace Downs
(watch this space!). These great new facilities offer
families the option of experiencing a fun day on the field,
or if preferred, leaving the children to get out and about
in the beautiful High Country. The launch of this club will
kick off during the July school holidays and include fun
learning and play sessions and encourage children to get
outside, do some hands-on learning and have a great time in
a safe and supportive environment. The TD Hawks Club is as
exciting for Ma and Pa as it is for the Children and
offer’s membership to everyone between the ages of five
and twelve.
Guests to the resort are invited to
enjoy the free use of the new gym facilities as well as the
Resort’s recently opened sports training field. For those
who like a little competition, bookings are currently being
taken for teams to enjoy a friendly match against the
stunning backdrop of the majestic Mt Hutt.
The
Terrace Downs mid-winter festive dinner menu looks delicious
again this year and at only $65.00 per head, any excuse is
excuse enough. Guests will be treated to three courses of
top quality meats and the finest local produce, and together
with great accommodation rates throughout June and July it
is very tempting to make a night or two of
it…!
